Some eruptions cooled the global climate—inducing a volcanic winter—depending on the amount of sulfur dioxide emitted and the magnitude of the eruption. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Before the present Holocene epoch, the criteria are less strict because of scarce data availability, partly since later eruptions have destroyed the evidence.
Scientists study the activity of the magma rising by measuring CO 2 emissions in the deeper parts of the volcano. Studies from before the 2011 Tohoku earthquake show the CO 2 emissions below 5 gCO 2 /m 3 /day, which is the detection limit. If the emissions rise above 5 gCO 2 /m 3 /day then seismic activity is occurring and an eruption could ...
